The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) - Jim Sharman

What night in is complete without a lovely musical to sing along to? Rocky Horror is arguably the best at this. Whilst the lack of really jazzy numbers to dance to in the second half is disappointing, it does work as a sort of winding down film, and any fan will still enjoy Tim Curry's camp portrayal. It's weird that the day after we watched this, Tim Curry had a heart attack. Sad times. Hope he is well for the future.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) - Jim Sharman

After watching this at the theatre for Valentine's Day, I simply had to rewatch the film.
I couldn't help but compare the two, but myself and my friend who watched the film with me agreed that in the grand scheme of things they were both equally impressive. We liked the "live" bedroom scenes better, but we also liked the way the film had sneaky in-jokes and the pauses between each line, allowing one to shout. The stage show did this too, but the actors obviously reacted, some good and some bad. But yeah, overall, both get a five star rating.
